Retaining Wall and Bulkhead Design

  • Marine structures, like retaining walls and bulkheads, are built to protect or prevent damage to shoreline or waterfront property and are often used in areas with undesirable slopes. A retaining wall is typically a marine construction structure that supports soil mass with a rigid base. A bulkhead is similar to a retaining wall in that it has the same functionality. However, it has one notable difference - it has water on one side and soil on the other.
